ReGifting & EMACT 2014 Festival

QP’s entry ReGiftingin the EMACT Festival this past weekend nominations for Best Show, Best Actress, Best Actor and Best Director. It was a great showing for QP, and we were fortunate to play to a very appreciative audience who left the festival smiling.

QP sends congratulations to our friends in community theater who will be taking their shows to the Regionals in FEB15 to represent EMACT ~ the Hovey and Lexington Players! It was quite a weekend of theater with well-deserved wins! See www.emact.org for all the nominations and awards.

Personally I would like to applaud Patrick Clearyfor writing such a lovely script for Suburban Holidays II and allowing us to to take it to festival and designing the sound, Valerie Forgionefor letting us use her beautiful music again, Sharon Mason and Gordon Ellisfor sharing their exceptional talents to bring it to an audience that clearly enjoyed it, Sara Millsfor Stage Managing a 1+ call per minute show, Jason Benagh for designing the majority of those lighting cues Sara had to call, as well as Darlene Machado, Karen Dervin, David Dooks, Peter Sofranasand Patrick Clearyfor helping crew the show at the Festival. Peter also designed a great graphic of rings for our festival tshirts and the cover of the script when it gets published!

And although not part of ReGifting itself, to all QP’rs who supported the festival that were FSMgrs, presenters, adjudicator handlers, ushers, and refreshers ~ no car parkers needed for this one ~ thank you too, because without your support the festival would not happen. And a special thank you to those who came to support us by being the audience.
